Their debuts came six days after Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa played in his first MLB game, which means three major prospects who passed through the Midwest League reached the big leagues in the past week.

Buxton didn’t fare well at the plate in his debut — he went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts — but he reached base safely on a fielder’s choice in the 9th inning and scored what turned out to be the winning run in Minnesota’s 4-3 victory over the Texas Rangers.

Buxton was the Midwest League MVP and Prospect of the Year in 2013 when he batted .341 with 8 HR, 55 RBI and 32 SB for the Cedar Rapids Kernels.

Lindor started Sunday’s Indians game on the bench, but he entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the 7th inning. He struck out in his first at-bat, but got his first MLB hit with a single in the 9th inning. The Detroit Tigers won the game, 8-1.

Lindor batted .257 with 6 HR, 42 RBI and 27 SB in 122 games with the 2012 Lake County Captains.

I previously wrote about how Correa did in his first MLB series. (You can read that post here.) He batted .320 with 9 HR and 86 RBI in 117 games with the 2013 Quad Cities River Bandits, who won the Midwest League Championship Series.

Here are eight other Midwest League alumni who are notable prospects and made their MLB debuts this season:
